The Restoration Hotel Collection

A New Way to Do Old Things

The Restoration Hotel Collection is a group of independent boutique hotels designed for travelers who value authenticity, curiosity, and connection. Our properties are shaped by their surroundings, offering an experience that feels personal, intentional, and deeply rooted in place.

Rather than preserving tradition for tradition’s sake, we invite guests to reinterpret it. At The Restoration, travel is not about following a script. It’s about discovering your own rhythm, creating new rituals, and leaving with memories that feel uniquely yours.

Rooted in Place, Shaped by Community

Every Restoration hotel reflects the city it calls home. From historic streets to creative neighborhoods, our properties draw inspiration from local culture, craftsmanship, and the people who shape each destination.

Because of this, no two stays feel the same. Guests are encouraged to explore beyond the lobby, connect with local makers, and experience each city as more than a backdrop. In turn, our hotels become gathering places for both travelers and locals alike.

Made for the Curious Traveler

The Restoration is designed for those who prefer discovery over itineraries. Our spaces are intentionally open and welcoming, allowing room for spontaneity, connection, and unhurried moments.

Whether staying for a weekend or settling in longer, guests are free to move at their own pace. Morning coffee may turn into an afternoon conversation. A short stay might evolve into something more. This flexibility is intentional, allowing travel to feel lived-in rather than rushed.

Always Authentic

Authenticity guides every decision we make. From design and dining to partnerships and programming, we prioritize sincerity over spectacle.

Our hotels celebrate modern travel while remaining grounded in genuine hospitality. We don’t aim to impress through excess. Instead, we focus on experiences that feel natural, approachable, and quietly memorable. As a result, each stay feels effortless, welcoming, and just a little unexpected.

Family-Owned, Hospitality-Driven

The Restoration Hotel Collection is proudly family-owned, guided by a long-standing belief that great hospitality is deeply personal. Our approach is shaped by hands-on leadership, long-term relationships, and a genuine care for the people who walk through our doors.

Because we are family-owned, we think beyond short stays and seasonal trends. Every decision is made with intention, prioritizing quality, consistency, and the kind of hospitality that feels thoughtful rather than transactional. It’s a commitment felt in the details, the welcome, and the way guests are encouraged to feel at home from the moment they arrive.

The Meaning of Restoration

Restoration is more than our name. It reflects a belief that travel should renew not only your surroundings, but your sense of self.

At The Restoration, guests are encouraged to slow down, reconnect, and rediscover what energizes them. When you feel free to define your own experience, ordinary moments become meaningful ones. That’s where restoration truly happens.

Our Mission

To create boutique hotels rooted in local culture, designed to inspire connection, curiosity, and a more intentional way of traveling.

Our Philosophy

The Restoration Hotel Collection exists to support a more intentional way of traveling. By creating spaces that encourage community and self-expression, we offer more than a place to stay.

We offer a place to come together, explore freely, and leave restored.

What We Believe In

Travel With Purpose
Travel should feel personal, not programmed. We believe the best experiences unfold naturally.

Connection Over Convention
From shared spaces to neighborhood partnerships, we create environments where people come together easily.

Authenticity Always
Sincerity matters. We focus on what feels real, approachable, and thoughtfully crafted.

Restoration From Within
True restoration happens when you have space to be yourself, explore freely, and slow down.

STAY AWHILE LIVING

Designed for Longer Stays

For guests who want more than a short visit, The Restoration offers Stay Awhile Living, an extended-stay experience designed for flexibility and comfort.

With apartment-style suites, full kitchens, and welcoming communal spaces, guests can settle in without sacrificing the thoughtful service of a boutique hotel. Whether working remotely, taking a sabbatical, or simply choosing to linger, longer stays feel natural and unforced.
